Abstract
A titanium-substituted lithium-excess molybdenum oxyfluoride, Li2.1–yTi0.2Mo0.7O2F, is synthesized by mechanical milling and tested as a positive electrode material in a conventional carbonate-based electrolyte or concentrated electrolyte. Reversibility as the electrode material is significantly improved by suppression of dissolution of the molybdenum oxyfluoride on electrochemical cycles. Li2.1–yTi0.2Mo0.7O2F delivers a reversible capacity of 265 mA h g–1 after 30 cycles at a rate of 50 mA g–1 with concentrated electrolyte. This finding contributes to the development of high-energy and long-cycle-life rechargeable lithium batteries with lithium-excess metal oxyfluorides in the future.
